| Operating from the heart of the Curse region, the [[Angel Cartel]] is today the largest and best organized of the space-based criminal factions. The Angels are divided into several groups, each with a very special function. It is commanded by the Dominations and in the century they've been lurking in deep space they have stolen, plundered or sabotaged countless number of ships and kidnapped, molested or murdered thousands of people. The Angels recruit members from all the races, and are thus not bound to any one zone of operation, which spans almost the entire known world. Many believe that the Angels got their power by uncovering Jovian technologies hidden in their ancient homes, now infested by the Angel Cartel. | | Operating from the heart of the Curse region, the [[Angel Cartel]] is today the largest and best organized of the space-based criminal factions.

| The Amarr Empire has had its share of religious cults and fanatics in the past, but few have been as successful, or been feared as much, as the [[Blood Raiders]].

The Blood Raiders are a sect of a ancient cult called Sani Sabik, which uses blood in their rituals. The Blood Raiders believe that cloned bodies have 'purer' blood than other bodies and this explains why they operate mainly in space, attacking unwary space farers and draining their bodies of blood. The Blood Raiders are led by the fearsome Omir Sarikusa, who has remained on top of the DED most wanted list for many years now. Under his leadership the Blood Raiders have become more organized and they have established several bases in the Bleak Lands region. | ||
| The [[Guristas Pirates]] were founded by Jirai "Fatal" Laitanen and his friend Korako "the Rabbit" Kosakami, a pair of ex-Caldari Navy officers who proceeded to make themselves a constant thorn in the side of the Caldari State. The Guristas are traditional pirates in the sense that, rather than a creed or ideology, their operations are motivated by plain and simple greed. While they are based in the region of Tenal, they have many bases close to Caldari space from which they embark on daring raids, often into the State itself. Though the Guristas are considered more honorable than many of their counterparts, they are still extremely dangerous and not to be trifled with. | | The [[Guristas Pirates]] were founded by Jirai "Fatal" Laitanen and his friend Korako "the Rabbit" Kosakami, a pair of ex-Caldari Navy officers who proceeded to make themselves a constant thorn in the side of the Caldari State.

| [[Sansha's Nation]] was founded more than a century ago, shortly after all the empires had come into contact, just when space exploration and colonization was taking off. Sansha was a Caldari tycoon who carved out a sizeable piece of space for himself. There, he set out to create a utopian state. His vision and charm attracted thousands of people and for some time the Nation flourished. But Sansha became ever more warped as his success increased. He started experiments, combining capsule technology with the human mind, creating zombie-like creatures that had the cold, calculating mind of a computer, but the ingenuity of a human. When this became public knowledge, Sansha was condemned and the other empires joined forces to bring him down. His forces were decimated and scattered to the winds. Remnants still remain far in the outer regions, but the once glorious Nation has been reduced to pirates and pillagers. | | [[Sansha's Nation]] was founded more than a century ago, shortly after all the empires had come into contact, just when space exploration and colonization was taking off.
